We will conduct a prospective clinical protocol in patients admitted to the ICU of the Hospital Clnico UC-Christus, Santiago de Chile, with diagnosis of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure, but who are still ventilating spontaneously. Clinical data: After hospital admission, patients who meet inclusion/exclusion criteria will be asked to consent to ...

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)over the years in the treatment policy has been confirmed that: with low tidal volume to achieve lung protection strategy and high positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), both can effectively reduce the mortality rate. And increase PEEPthe alveolar pressure is greater than the atmospheric pressure when exhaledSo ...

ARDS is defined by acute hypoxemia, respiratory failure and the presence of bilateral lung infiltrates. ARDS is a syndrome of inflammation and increased permeability that may coexist with left atrial or pulmonary capillary hypertension. Several recent trials in ARDS/ALI (Acute Lung Injury) have generated interest in the use of Prostacyclin ...

Objectives / Research Aims The overall objectives of this study are to demonstrate whether a protocol for the early use of inhaled N-acetylcysteine improves mortality, ventilator days, ICU days, hospital stay, as well as the need for other "rescue" modalities, such as use of advanced ventilator modalities (such as airway ...

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is one of the serious complications in critically ill neonates. It can result in severe hypoxemia refractory to mechanical ventilation. There are few options for mechanical ventilation for such situations such as high frequency oscillation ventilation and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. The aim of the present ...

BACKGROUND The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality around the world. In the United States alone there are 150,000 cases per year. Although there have been significant scientific advances in understanding the clinical and pathophysical aspects of the syndrome, there is as yet ...

This trial evaluates efficacy and safety of inhaled molgramostim (rhGM-CSF) in 45 patients with pneumonia associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). A third of the patients will receive 150 mcg inhaled molgramostim, another third 450 mcg and the remaining third will receive inhaled placebo for 3 days. The patients will ...

The purpose of this study is to describe, in a large population of ICU patients the burden of, management and spectrum of approaches to weaning from ventilation, in patients that require invasive mechanical ventilation for any reason, for a time period of at least 24 hours. It will answer the ...
